Okhookup.com Review – Why the Site Isn’t the Best Dating App
Okhookup.com is a dating app and website promising to match you with singles seeking local hookups in your area. Claiming to be the number one local hookup app, the site – which was first launched in 2009 – is not short on confidence when it comes to the product it delivers. Okhookup even makes the bizarre claim to “Try This Weird App To Hookup with Local Girls” which is as unusual as we have found in the dating scene. Okhookup points out that is not affiliated with Okcupid, the more popular dating site now part of the Match.com business, but does report to having five million members. Read on for our guide to how does Okhookup.com work and our independent Okhookup.com review.
Pros of Okhookup.com
If you are looking for a hookup in your area, then you might consider Okhookup.com because that is what the site is all about. It isn’t the best looking website if you join down that route, in fact it is very basic, but Okhookup is all about the app and they have a very neat and easy to use one at that. The style of dating is a Tinder-style one with matches to tick or reject rather than swipe left or right. But the principal is still the same. If you both match, then you could be arranging a hookup together. When you start using the app, you will notice an impressive number of women wanting hookups with GPS used to determine the distance from you. But see our thoughts on the profiles and members below in the cons, despite the claimed five million worldwide users.
Cons of Okhookup.com
We have serious reservations about the number of members Okhookup.com claims to have and that was only exaggerated further when we started using the app. Living quite rural, there is no way the members listed as being one mile, four miles or even five miles can exist. Even if the truth of distance is being bent somewhat, there are way too many fake profiles to be able to take the site seriously. There’s an urgency placed upon your joining too, which is incredibly offputting. Any dating app that needs to use a phrase like: “IMPORTANT! We are only letting in 7 more guys from [country]” isn’t one to really be trusted. Would any dating app seriously limit the number of members?! Let’s just, we’ve come across a lot better hookup sites than this one.
Registratoon Process
The registration process starts with some simple question to determine you are eligible for joining before you register. One nice feature to the member login process is the option to choose the type of girl you want to hookup with, ranging from skinny to BBW, an age range and the type of hookup you were looking to find. There’s also a picture generated verification stage before getting to the point of entering an email address on the app and choosing a user name. It is at this stage that you begin a 2-day free trial, but still need to insert credit card details, which is offputting to say the least.

Pricing Plans
As mentioned above you can join Okhookup.com on a free 2-day trial, but that is as far as a basic plan goes. You are required to insert a credit card in order to start your free trial, and unless you cancel your membership before the 48 hours are up you will end up being automatically enrolled onto the premium plan. We didn’t get to this point, so we can’t tell you the monthly cost, but let’s just say this isn’t the practice of a trustworthy dating site.
Search Options
How to search on Okhookup.com is simple: you set your requirements including the type of girl you are looking for, age range and type of hookup wanted during the registration process and you will get matches to say yes or no to. You can change the search criteria at any point and search by city. You will both need to tick on each other to get to the point of messaging and setting up the hookup you came looking for.
How to Delete an Account
It isn’t easy to find how to cancel Okhookup.com account. You will need to email support@okhookup.com to get the customer services team to do so. You can, however, cancel your subscription renewal in your account, and we recommend doing that the moment you start your free 2-day trial if you do decide to become a member of the Okhookup app.
Final Thoughts on Okhookup.com
There quite a lot not to like about Okhookup.com. The claimed number of members doesn’t stack up, the quality of profiles, the urgency at which the site or app wants you to sign up with green buttons everywhere – it all smacks a bit of desperation. If you do land a hookup using this site, then you will be in the minority, we are pretty sure. There’s an untrustworthy whiff about Okhookup and we’d advise you to steer clear of it in all honesty. There are much more reliable hookup specific dating sites that deliver better quality than this site. You will also more likely find a local hookup using a more traditional dating app than you will joining Okhookup. Everything about this site is focused on getting money from you, and that isn’t a good way of attracting real-life daters seeking a hookup.
